“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire, you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.” (Isaiah 43:1b-3a)

Through the waters, the rivers and the fire, You keep me close, shielded from the elements. Your voice ushers me through the pouring rain and the dry places, and streams light into the caves, caverns and recesses of my soul. You call my name and hope abounds. Father God, You are my Strong Tower, and I seek refuge from these storms in your embrace. Renewed, redeemed and rescued, I am rebuilt and made whole.
